A King County jury has found the City of Seattle negligent and liable for the 2020 death of 16-year-old Antonio Mays Jr., who was fatally shot in the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (CHAZ), also known as the Capitol Hill Organized Protest (CHOP). The verdict, delivered three-plus weeks after a month-long trial at the King County Courthouse presided over by Judge O'Donnell, stems from a wrongful death lawsuit filed by the Mays Estate accusing the city of negligence in its handling of the zone, which protesters occupied for three weeks amid nationwide unrest following George Floyd's death. The jury's ruling holds...

Democratic Minnesota state Rep. Brad Tabke posted over 20 updates to his X account Thursday documenting ICE agent sightings across Shakopee, Prior Lake, and Savage — suburbs about 25 miles southwest of Minneapolis. Throughout the day, Tabke shared the real-time locations of ICE agents and vehicles, including sightings near gas stations, a Panera, and shopping centers in the Southbridge area. Tabke also described how to identify unmarked ICE vehicles. “Every other car on Marschall and 101 today is ICE if you know what to look for: Missing front or front & back plate … Out of state plates … Tinted...

@amuse@amusePOLITICAL VIOLENCE: Trained ICE Watch activists in Portland were seen trapping ICE agents in their vehicles while calling for backup. Citizens cannot take the law into their own hands or obstruct federal officers.ransomnote: In the video, a woman manuevers her car to box in another vehicle driven by an I.C.E. agent. As she continues to manuever, and the I.C.E. vehicle also manuevers, she says, "We can play, my car is bigger than yours." After more manuevering, she opens her car door and yells, "I.C.E.! It's I.C.E.! Please help me record! Get behind them if you have a car! If you...

Amid the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown in the Twin Cities, federal agents have threatened to arrest onlookers, following through on that threat at least once. Social media is also full of videos of civilian watchdogs blowing whistles and honking car horns to alert others as agents attempt to stop or detain people they believe to be illegal immigrants. One of them is Lucia Webb, who was boxed in and confronted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents after following them in her car last week.

The woman shot dead by a federal immigration agent in Minneapolis has been identified as Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old mother of three who had just moved to the city. She was a prize-winning poet and a hobby guitarist, who was there as a legal observer of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) activities, city leaders have said. But the Trump administration has called her a "domestic terrorist". Good's death has sparked protests across the country, with many people holding signs that read "Justice for Renee". ... A fundraiser for Good's family, which was set up with a target of $50,000...

MULTIPLE VIDEOS AT LINK........................ JB Pritzker is at it again, attempting to rile up his base by threatening the Trump Administration. The Illinois Governor is now threatening to throw ICE and other federal agents in PRISON. Tell me you want to run for President as a Democrat without telling me you want to run for President as a Democrat. Pritzker made the comments during an interview this week in which he trashed ICE, CBP, and the Trump Administration in general. He said in no uncertain terms that he has a group of state attorneys working on how to PROSECUTE federal...

The Department of Justice (DOJ) has terminated an employee after learning she was married to a radical leftist who founded an anti-ICE app that puts our immigration officers in grave danger. Carolyn Feinstein, who is married to ICEBlock developer Joshua Aaron, revealed to the far-left The Daily Beast on Monday that the DOJ fired her via email Friday morning. She was working as a forensic accountant for the department before her dismissal. The termination notice cites Feinstein’s lack of candor during an internal inquiry as contributing to her firing. .... Conservative journalist Laura Loomer previously discovered Feinstein’s marriage to Aaron...

The U.S. Department of Justice has sued Orange County Registrar of Voters Bob Page for allegedly not providing records related to non-citizens’ removal from voter registration lists. The Justice Department alleged that Page refused to provide full, unredacted records related to the removal of non-citizens from the county’s voter registration lists and did not maintain an accurate voter list in violation of the Help America Vote Act, a 2002 law that made sweeping reforms to the country’s voting process. It said the records Page provided redacted certain personal information, including social security and state ID numbers. The lawsuit alleged that...

President Trump and his team have been obstructed by multiple federal judges while trying to implement his agenda. The team has expressed frustration with a number of activist judges, and they have been vocal about that frustration. Chief Justice John Roberts tried to post support for the independence of the judiciary. But his post is belied by the facts. Senator Chuck Schumer told us the plan last fall was obstruction, and he reaffirmed that this week. So, if Democrats are counting on activist judges to slow the MAGA agenda, then they are not acting according to Article 3 authority, and...

12 Timothy 1:7 (King James Version) For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. It looks like the FBI Keystone Kops have decided to play hardball. Apparently, they don’t work for the Department of Justice or the President of the United States. They think they don’t need to turn the information on Epstein over to the Attorney General or the Director of the FBI who are their superiors. If they ignore the deadline, they will be guilty of insubordination and subject to immediate firing. Disobeying orders is...

Wednesday night, Attorney General Pam Bondi appeared on Fox News with Jesse Watters, and among the many subjects covered, she announced that the long-promised release of the Jeffrey Epstein list - all of the clients of the most infamous child sex trafficker and conduit for illegal and illicit sex that would have made Caligula blush. The Boss wrote a great post earlier with the wise counsel of Professor Alan Dershowitz - if you're to release it, release it all. Don't fall into the trap of cherry-picking what parts you make public and which parts you withhold. Here is what Bondi...

WASHINGTON — Attorney General Pam Bondi revealed Thursday that “thousands of pages” of documents in the FBI’s investigation into the sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein were withheld from her. And she’s demanding that they be turned over by Friday morning. Bondi, 59, disclosed in a letter to FBI Director Kash Patel a tipster said that all but “approximately 200 pages of documents” were still being kept secret at the FBI’s office in New York — despite her after repeated requests for the “full” Epstein files. The initial batch included flight logs, phone numbers and the names of victims, but a source...

Michael Shellenberger @shellenberger FBI whistleblower @GOBactual confirmed to me that a source inside FBI said FBI employees were destroying evidence on servers, and that he informed @Kash_Patel I hope he & @AGPamBondi @JohnRatcliffe @elonmusk @realannapaulina are preventing this. We urgently need disclosure!

The head of the FBI's New York field office resigned Monday afternoon, facing pressure from President Donald Trump's administration. James Dennehy announced his resignation in an email to staff, NBC News reported. His resignation comes after Kash Patel began his first week leading the bureau last week. Before that, Justice Department deputy attorney general, Emil Bove, began a search for all FBI staff who worked on cases around the Jan. 6 attackers. Dennehy clashed with Bove over that probe into the staff.

The top special agent overseeing the FBI’s largest field office has been forced to retire, according to an email he sent to colleagues and obtained by CNN.

NEW YORK (WABC) -- The head of the FBI in New York forcibly resigned Monday in the latest high-level shakeup at the bureau under the Trump administration. James Dennehy, a well-regarded leader in the New York law enforcement community who also served in the U.S. Marine Corps, told the office he was forced to submit his resignation as assistant director-in-charge of the FBI's New York field office, one of the bureau's most visible posts. "Late Friday, I was informed that I needed to put my retirement papers in today, which I just did. I was not given a reason for...

Liz Cheney threatened Donald Trump's incoming Department of Justice on Monday, claiming that any move to investigate the now-defunct January 6th committee would be "sanctionable conduct." The statement, put out in response to Trump's recent "Meet the Press" interview, also denied allegations that she and her colleagues destroyed evidence. While speaking to NBC News' Kristen Welker, the president-elect said the following. “Cheney did something that’s inexcusable, along with Thompson and the people on the un-select committee of political thugs and, you know, creeps,” the President-elect said, referring to Mississippi Rep. Bennie G. Thompson (the committee’s chairman). “They deleted and destroyed...

Former Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle and others in top agency leadership positions wanted to destroy the cocaine discovered in the White House last summer, but the Secret Service Forensics Services Division and the Uniformed Division stood firm and rejected the push to dispose of the evidence, according to three sources in the Secret Service community. Multiple heated confrontations and disagreements over how best to handle the cocaine ensued after a Secret Services Uniformed Division officer found the bag on July 2, 2023, a quiet Sunday while President Biden and his family were at Camp David in Maryland, the sources...
